If you have clothing, toys or any other item to donate, please contact us first to check if we can take the items by emailing us on central@bswaid.org.
Unfortunately we are unable to accept furniture donations.
As a rule of thumb, please don’t offer us anything you wouldn’t be happy to receive yourself, or anything that is broken or dirty. It’s quite rare that we would offer second hand clothing to a family, so for large donations of clothing in particular, please try our charity shop in Boldmere first.
